THE PAINTERS, STRIKE.

No Settlement Yet Arrived at-The
 Union Men StilI OOnfident-What the
 Painters Attribute the Strike to-Ar.
 bItrary Demands.
 The painters strike continues in force, and it is not definitely known when the trouble will be settled. The boss painters give no sign of yielding as yet. Several of them said when interviewed last evening: "The
 question is not one of wages, but the Painters
 union want us to employ only union men.
 The men are satisfied with their wages They
 asked for and were given an advance last
 year. We now give ten hours pay for nine
 hours. We have many faithful and deserv- ing workingmen who don't belong to the
 union, don't want to join and won't join if
 they can help it, and as they are capable we don't care to discharge them. We are great ly disconnected by this arbitrary petition to discharge our non-union men. We are not asked to discharge them, but to sign an agree | ment not to employ non union men. The | unions plan of paying the workmen, which they want adopted, is also 8 source of trouble. By this plan the poor and inex- perienced workingnan gets as much as the | competent and experienced man."
 The boss painters who have employed non | union men are going right along with their work and getting the shekels while the union-employing bosses are greatly dis commoded and are daily suffering loss in their business. The members of the union executive committee held conference Satur- day night with one of the leading firms that refuses to sign the agreement. This firm, it is said, has been the most determined in opposition to the union as trade organ ization and emphatically refused to confer
 with it's employees. The firm offered to treat | with the union as body on Saturday, but the executive committee decided that it would have to deal with the committee as representatives of the union, which the firm at once declined to do. The firm employ twenty nine men and nine of the force are
 now at work. The strikers hint that if they
 can get this firm to sign the paper the rest
 will follow suit

PASTOR,s FAREWELL.

Close of the Pastorate of Rev. MT Wyatt, Pastor of St. John Street Church For Three Years Past Parting Tributes.
 The morning and evening services at the St. John street N. E. church were deeply interesting, and were largely attended by the members and friends of the church. At the morning service Mir. Wyatt was unusually impressive in his final administration of the communion service. In the evening he ad- dressed himself in afectionate admonition to his people, taking for his text Matthew, thir- teenth chapter and third verse: "And he spake many things unto them in parables , saying, The sower went forth to sow.'" He commenced with brief history of his own religious experience. He then alluded to the different conditions of soil as contemplated in the text, and made the application to his own people, closing each division of his ser mon with the solemn sentence, My message to you is ended" His last utterance was, "Our ways separate here; shall we meet at the gate of heaven?"
 Throu ghout there was great solemnity and many were moved to tears. During his pastorate of three years MT. Wyatt has gained the affection of his people in a re- markable degree. He leaves the city much regretted by many outside his own church who have been brought into personal contact.
 At his farewell reception on Wednesday evening last Rev. Messrs. MeseTve and But ricks were present and spoke without re- serve of the deep respect and esteem in which they held MT. Wyatt. Allusion was also made to the kindly relations between the Davenport, First Baptist and St. John street churches which have grown up within the last three years.
 A photographic group of the choir, which has grown up during the present pastorate, L-1 41,o ,o11 large envelope containing substantial evi dences of the esteem in which MT. Wyatt is held by the people.
 It was announced from the pulpit during the day that in place of the usual assignment of seats, which has been the custom of late, the slips for the ensuing year would be rent ed, the rental to take place on Wednesday evening, April 27.
 The incoming pastor, Rev. I. N. Foster, now located in Brooklyn, is expected to preach his first sermon one week from next Sunday morning.

NEW HAvEN,s GAS SUPPLY.

Gas Made by Petroleum Oil-AH the Gas i'm New Haven Now Made by This Process-NO Cheaper Than she Old Way-How 1t is Made.
 As was stated in the COURIER several days ago, the Illuminating gas now being used in this city is made, not from coal, as formerly, but from petroleum. Said 8 gentleman in the company's employ Saturday: "We do not intend to supply this gas made from petrole- um but short time longer. We resorted to
 this gas partly to try the experiment, as it is
 used successfully in place of coal gas in New York city and scores of other cities, and we resorted to it because we were obliged to on account of the breaking down of some of the furnaces, which necessitated the suspension of business in the coal gas house. This kind of gas has been made by this company for a year, but not great deal of it. It is much | finer than coal gas. The cost of making it
 is as much, and possibly more, than coal ! gas."
 It may be interesting to know about the \ process required: This new kind of gas is | made in a building on East street separate | from the others. There are two large gen. orators and two fixing pipes which are very
 large. Into one of these generators is put
 about ton of coal. The fixing pipes extend ! A1oHA Iuo AISG uoor InrOugl the second story ! to the top of the building. The generating
 pipes reach only to the second floor where
 there is small opening for the coal to be put | into. number of levers on the fixing pipe ! are turned, and in a few minutes tiny blue | flame begins to come out at the top of that | pipe, which soon becomes quite large. What
 is called the following up" process has now
 begun. It takes about twenty minutes to ! blow the coal red hot, and then the levers
 are turned off and the oil is turned in through pipes. The oil runs over the coal, making the gas The coal is deadened by the oil and can be "blown up'' two or three times and sometimes four. It takes about twenty ! minutes for the coal to cool off each time The gas is very dirty, and has to pass through narrow pipes to be cleaned so that il
 will be ready for burning. From 400, 900 te 45O, ,00O feet of gas are burned nightly in the city.
